Today's blog installment is about the murder of a beautiful person with invisible disabilities. Unlike many I write about, this crime was not committed by police. The moment I learned of this sweet, kind woman's fate, it was impossible for me to ever forget the name, Jennifer Daugherty.

Evan Zenari says he didn't think it would be such a difficult process to qualify for #Alberta's Persons with #DevelopmentalDisabilities (PDD) program.

The 21-year-old is at the centre of a report by the province's #ombudsman #investigating the eligibility requirements to get into the #PDDprogram.

Zenari was born with developmental #disabilities & on the #autism spectrum. Some of his skills are limited & he can't find a job.
